Don't know if we have similar varieties of mushrooms as you folks would 
have or not.


My father used to gather and eat wild mushrooms. He said if they did not 
smell bad, they were generally safe to eat.


They never killed him so I guess he chose the right ones.

If you let those get too far gone to eat, just let them dry up and stomp

Yes it's a very big thing in rural Indiana. Never got into it, but
wife's family was. Her mother has found them around on our wooded
property occasionally. Never understood the allure. To me, they don't
taste much different from any other mushroom.

We have chanterelles that grow wild around here, they are really tasty.  
There is another kind that looks very similar that can make you sick but 
not kill you.  They just kinda grow out in yards and places, I think a 
friend had a whole huge crop in her front yard but I wasn't sure so 
didn't pick.  Next year I will get this guy to come look at them and 
pick some if they are good.  Someone gave me some a coupla years ago 
that were really good sauteed with some salt and butter.  I now a guy 
who grows oyster mushrooms too, they are pretty easy, you can buy the 
spores to put on rotting logs or firewood chunks and they just grow.  I 
need to do that at some point.


I had morels when I was younger in Indiana, my dad worked with guys who 
went foraging for them every year

ShoNuff that is what it is. He says you can slice them and cook
them like a steak and they taste like crabmeat. He’s gonna come by
the vast estate tomorrow and take a look at it. I guess this is
the time of year for them. We might try to “seed” a bit onto some

that around in the woods.

This one might be a bit past it’s prime but might still be edible

 I wanted morels last year but never could find a one despite spending many 
hours in the woods. It was really dry last year though and I think we just 
didn't get them. I did find some false-morels which are fortunately fairly easy 
to detect.
